Yesterday my baby girl turned 5. I honestly can't believe it. Where does the time go? It seems like just yesterday I was holding her for the first time in the hospital. The story of her birth is a lot less stressful than Connor's. She was due March 12 but obviously joined us a little bit sooner than that. The day before she was born I insisted we go to Provo to walk around the mall. We spent hours walking around the mall and then met Candee, Kyle, and Candee's parents at the Olive Garden for dinner. After dinner I was soooo sick and just didn't feel right. We headed home and I started having contractions, so we took Connor to Debbie's house and headed to the hospital. They monitored me for a couple hours but decided my contractions weren't consistent enough and sent us home. I was miserable the whole night so first thing after I showered and did my make up we headed to the hospital again. This time they admitted me and decided we were going to have a baby. I was a little nervous for her birth because Connor had such a rough start, but a few weeks before I had steroid shots to develop her lungs so I was hoping that they worked and we wouldn't have any complications. It was a perfect delivery. I seriously pushed twice, only 15 minutes, and she was out. She was so beautiful with tons and tons of black hair. I remember how weird it was that I got to hold her and snuggle her immediately. She didn't need any oxygen and was even able to stay in my room with me that night (although the nurses came and got her so I could get some rest). We were able to bring her home the next day and so the story begins. Kadence was by far my best baby. She was always so content and happy and slept through the night at 2 months old. We are so glad she joined our family, she makes us smile everyday.
